Hello
Thanks for your query.
In most of the cases, the dead fetus will be resorbed on its own.
You need to monitor with serial ultrasound.
Have you had an IVF pregnancy with selective fetal reduction ?
Or is it a spontaneous triplet pregnancy with natural fetal demise ?
Right now the pregnancy is quite early, and the dead fetus will resorb by itself within the first trimester .
Take care.
All the best.
